Description

  The present invention relates to a compact container for storing cosmetics such as a foundation, teak, and eye shadow.

  As a compact container for cosmetics such as foundation, teak, and eye shadow, it consists of a container body that contains cosmetics and a lid that is hinged to the container body so that it can be opened and closed. A plane mirror is attached to the inside of the lid. Is popular. Further, such a compact container has been proposed in which a three-sided mirror is attached to the inside of the lid (Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2).

JP 2000-175738 A Registered Utility Model No. 3020899

  However, in the conventional three-sided mirror, the sleeve mirror is hinged on both sides of the central mirror so that the central mirror and the sleeve mirror face each other when closed, so that the mirror cannot be seen unless the sleeve mirror is opened. Therefore, there is an inconvenience that it is necessary to open the sleeve mirror even when only one mirror is sufficient.

  On the other hand, the present invention allows the mirror to be viewed without opening the sleeve mirror just by opening the lid of the compact container, and can also be used as a polygon mirror such as a triple mirror if the sleeve mirror is opened. It aims at providing the compact container which can be used.

  The present inventor can see the mirror without opening the sleeve mirror if the mirror surface of the central mirror and the sleeve mirror when the three-way mirror is closed is in the same direction and the sleeve mirror can slide on the mirror surface of the central mirror. It was found that the effect of a three-way mirror can be obtained by further sliding the sleeve mirror.

That is, the present invention is a compact container comprising a container body for storing cosmetics, a lid body hinged to the container body, and a polygon mirror comprising a central mirror and a sleeve mirror attached to the inside of the lid body. ,
The sleeve mirror is slidably mounted on the mirror surface of the central mirror,
A compact container in which a central mirror and a sleeve mirror overlap each other with their mirror surfaces facing in the same direction with the polygonal mirror closed.

  According to the compact container of the present invention, with the polygon mirror closed, the central mirror and the sleeve mirror overlap each other with the mirror surfaces facing in the same direction, so without the operation of opening the conventional sleeve mirror, You can see the mirror just by opening the lid of the compact container. Further, by sliding the sleeve mirror, it can be used as a three-sided mirror or other polygonal mirror.

  Furthermore, since the mirror surfaces of the polygonal mirrors do not face each other when the compact container is closed, the mirror is difficult to break against an impact such as when the compact container is accidentally dropped.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In each figure, the same numerals indicate the same or equivalent components.

  1A is a perspective view of a compact container 1A according to an embodiment of the present invention, with a lid closed, FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view thereof, and FIG. 2A is a perspective view of a state with the lid opened. 2B is a sectional view thereof.

  This compact container 1A is composed of a container body 10 that accommodates cosmetics A such as foundation, teak, and eye shadow in a refillable manner, a doubly mirror 20, and a lid 30 that covers the opening surface of the container body 10 so as to be freely opened and closed. . In addition to the cosmetic A, the container body 10 is provided with a space in which cosmetic tools such as a sponge 2, a brush, and a brush (not shown) are accommodated as necessary.

  The two-sided mirror 20 includes a central mirror 21 and a sleeve mirror 22, and these mirror surfaces are in the same direction when the two-sided mirror is closed, that is, when the central mirror 21 and the sleeve mirror 22 overlap each other. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2A, when the lid 30 of the compact container 1A is opened, the sleeve mirror 22 can be seen as it is.

  The lid 30 is connected to the container body 10 via a hinge at the lower end thereof. Inside the lid 30, the central mirror 21 is fixed by an adhesive, an adhesive, or the like, and rail-shaped portions 31 are provided on both upper and lower sides of the central mirror 21.

  The sleeve mirror 22 is adhered to the sleeve mirror frame 23 with an adhesive, an adhesive, or the like. The upper and lower rail-like portions 31 inside the lid 30 are engaged with the upper and lower ends of the sliding member 24, and one end of the sleeve mirror frame 23 is attached to the sliding member 24 by a hinge pin 25. ing. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D, as the sliding member 24 slides on the rail-shaped portion 31, the sleeve mirror 22 slides on the mirror surface of the central mirror 21, The central mirror 21 and the sleeve mirror 22 that overlap vertically are juxtaposed. In FIGS. 3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D, descriptions of cosmetics, sponges, and the like are omitted.

  Further, since the sliding member 24 and the sleeve mirror frame 23 are hinged by the hinge pin 25, the sleeve mirror 22 can have an appropriate opening angle with respect to the central mirror 21, and as a double mirror Can be used.

  When the sleeve mirror 22 is slid and juxtaposed with the central mirror 21 as described above, a notch 32 is provided in the rail-shaped portion 31 so as to stabilize the position of the sleeve mirror 22 in this juxtaposed state as shown in FIG. 3D. It is preferable. In addition, the sleeve mirror 22 may be held at a desired slide position by using a spring pin for the sliding member 24 and increasing the frictional force with the rail-shaped portion 31.

  The sliding mechanism composed of the sliding member 24 and the rail-shaped portion 31 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the central mirror 21 as in this embodiment, so that the sleeve mirror 22 can slide smoothly. Although it is preferable from the viewpoint of the strength of the moving mechanism, it can be provided at either the upper end or the lower end.

  In order to allow the sleeve mirror 22 to be easily slid, it is preferable to provide a convex portion 26 at the end opposite to the hinge pin 25 of the sleeve mirror frame 23 so that a finger can be easily applied.

  FIG. 4A is a compact container 1B with a three-sided mirror 20B in which a sleeve mirror (second sleeve mirror 22B) is slidably provided on the sleeve mirror (first sleeve mirror 22A) of the compact container 1A described above. FIG. 4B is a perspective view in a state where a lid is opened, and FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the lid is closed.

  This compact container 1B is also provided with the central mirror 21, the first sleeve mirror 22A, and the second sleeve mirror 22B so that the mirror surfaces are in the same direction when they are overlapped. The second sleeve mirror 22B can be seen as it is.

  As shown in FIG. 4B, a rail-shaped portion 31 having a double groove is provided on the inner side of the lid 30, and the first sleeve mirror sliding member 24A is engaged with the groove on the central mirror 21 side. The second sleeve mirror sliding member 24B is engaged with the outer groove. Then, the first sleeve mirror frame 23A is slidable 24A for the first sleeve mirror so that the first sleeve mirror 22A and the second sleeve mirror 22B slide to the left and right sides from the state where they overlap the central mirror 21. The second sleeve mirror frame 23B is attached to the left side of the second sleeve mirror sliding member 24B with the hinge pin 25.

  Accordingly, when the second sleeve mirror 22B is slid to the left in the drawing from the state in which the central mirror 21, the first sleeve mirror 22A and the second sleeve mirror 22B overlap, as shown in FIG. The second sleeve mirror 22B is juxtaposed with the first sleeve mirror 22A, and the compact container 1B is used as a two-sided mirror by adjusting the second sleeve mirror 22B to an appropriate opening angle with respect to the central mirror 21. It becomes possible to do. Further, when the first sleeve mirror 22A is slid to the right side in the drawing, the first sleeve mirror 22A is also juxtaposed with the central mirror 21 as shown in FIG. By adjusting the opening angle, the compact container 1B can be used as a three-sided mirror.

  The compact container of the present invention is useful as a container for storing cosmetics such as foundation, teak, and eye shadow.
